Chapter 1391: Striking Across the World

Let the slaughter begin; blood will be offered to the furnace!

Chu Feng's words instantly stunned everyone.

The tranquility of the forbidden zone was shattered. Even with molten lava flowing like rivers nearby, and the majestic Immortal Mountain, where the Dao Race was ascending, shrouded in black mist further away — sights that were themselves awe-inspiring — they couldn't obscure the shock on people's faces. The area immediately erupted in noise.

“Heh heh…” The elder from the Mo family of the Human King Clan smiled, but his smile held no warmth, only indifference and mockery. As a Quasi-Heavenly Venerate of the Human King Clan, which other clan dared to speak to him in such a manner? Especially among humanity, anyone who encountered him was expected to bow, for he hailed from the Human King Clan — the Mo family!

Then, the Mo family elder spoke: “Sometimes, I believe youthful passion and arrogance are signs of vibrant vitality, full of drive and ambition. They are the reckless instincts bestowed upon them by their age, and in a sense, a capital of youth.” He paused slightly after saying this, his tone utterly cold, and continued: “However, too much of anything is bad. When someone becomes overly arrogant, they are not far from being ignorant of the times, unaware of their own limits. Yes, I’m talking about you. To think I’d encounter such an… idiot today!”

These were the words of the Human King Clan’s Mo family elder. He glanced at Chu Feng, his words quite plain and his voice not loud, yet they struck everyone as exceptionally grating. Many people wore strange expressions. The Human King Clan elder's words were very harsh and merciless. However, upon reflection, many felt he indeed had the right to speak in such a condescending manner. After all, those who, like Zhou Zhengde, dared to disrespect the Human King Clan had met tragic ends! People turned their gaze to Chu Feng, believing that once targeted by the Human King Clan, his situation would become extremely dire.

“Old geezer, you’re tired of living. You are all offerings!” Chu Feng retorted coldly.

Beside the Human King Clan’s Mo family elder stood a group of young individuals, all rising stars and top young powerhouses of their clan. They all began to smile. However, their smiles were cold and reserved, showcasing their extraordinary status, self-assurance, and arrogance.

“Is he joking? A great slaughter? To offer the blood of his enemies to the furnace—is he referring to us?”

“Heh heh…” Some remained silent, but their smiles spoke volumes, conveying boundless sarcasm and ridicule. It was a posture of looking down, as if a brilliant Human King civilization had encountered a savage barbarian. “Do they not know proper etiquette? Do they live like savages, eating raw meat and drinking blood? Where did this person come from, lacking all reverence for the Human King Clan?” These were their words—a few simple sentences filled with disdain, scorn, and most of all, contempt. Deep down, they held a conviction: what good was high mastery in force fields? As Human Kings, they inherently suppressed other human bloodlines! Thus, they were aloof and supremely confident.

Not all the young members of the Human King Clan remained nonchalant. Some with tougher personalities couldn't hold back and shouted loudly: “As a human, you refuse to bow to a king and yet dare to spout such nonsense? How ridiculous! Do you even know what bloodline flows within you? Soon, your blood, your very body, will honestly tell you of a primal reverence from the soul. You will prostrate yourself and devoutly kowtow to those with the Human King bloodline!”

“Zhou Zhengde, Brother Zhou, please grace us with your presence and apologize!” someone else taunted.

A number of young men and women from the Mo family spoke up, some with serious expressions, others with mocking smiles. Chu Feng’s face darkened. With a sharp roar, he interrupted them: “A bunch of worthless nobodies, daring to talk about etiquette and reverence in front of me? Crawl over here and face your deaths!”

Those people were far too arrogant, speaking with such disrespect and abandon. Naturally, Chu Feng had no pleasantries to offer. Since he was about to truly unleash the might of a Great Divine King, he didn't mind speaking harshly and cleansing with blood. Some of the Mo family's young members immediately exploded in fury.

“Hah! He’s got spirit. When we capture him later, don't kill him. Keep him, refine his sinews, bones, skin, and blood, and chain him before our clan's mountain gate. Let him live as a display for everyone to see!” A young woman from the Mo family spoke, her words even harsher than the men's.

At that moment, several young powerhouses from the Mo family simultaneously activated their Human King bloodlines. Instantly, dazzling blood-red light erupted, terrifyingly resembling one blazing sun after another streaking across the sky. From their pores and bodies, brilliant blood-red light surged forth, specifically a pervasive violet blood that shone like a dazzling sun, suppressing all other humans present.

At the same time, spurred by the young people's surging vital energy, the blood of the Mo family elder, the Quasi-Heavenly Venerate, also revived; it was a passive awakening. With a resounding boom, as if a heavenly tribulation had descended, that area became a realm of terrifying runes. His blood shimmered with gold, unlike any other, creating an astonishingly oppressive aura. Most frightening of all, the youth beside him, suspected to be an ancient great sage, also stirred slightly, radiating an immensely terrifying aura. However, the youth quickly regained his composure, and his passively awakened bloodline settled back into dormancy.

Chu Feng's expression grew serious. While confident and fearless of enemies from all directions, he had keenly sensed something unusual in that brief moment just now: the youth was truly extraordinary, a formidable individual. Was he truly an ancient great sage or mighty figure? But his realm was only at the Divine King level, so what could he do?

Chu Feng grew cold, taking a decisive step forward, ready to strike! Everyone gasped in shock. This Zhou Zhengde truly possessed extraordinary courage, intending to attack the Human King Clan, even knowing there was an unfathomably powerful expert among them.

At this crucial moment, the Yuan Clan's Quasi-Heavenly Venerate spoke, reminding him: “Brother Mo, be careful not to accidentally kill him. The seniors in this Grand Supreme Forbidden Zone still wish to keep him alive. I misspoke earlier.” The Human King Mo family elder paused at these words, but quickly nodded, a faint smile on his face. “Oh? Of course, we must obey the decree of the ancient sages in the Grand Supreme Forbidden Zone.” Since the Fire Essence in the Grand Supreme Forbidden Zone required a master of force fields, they would leave him alive. The Mo family elder made this decision, as the beings within the Grand Supreme Forbidden Zone were not to be trifled with; even the Human King Clan held them in awe.

The Yuan Clan's Quasi-Heavenly Venerate smiled and said: “Yes, I am now controlling the Magnetic Marrow Bell, merging it with this Companion Furnace. It's not convenient for me to act further, so be careful and don't let him escape.” At this critical juncture for their clan, the bell boomed, and dense force field symbols merged with the Companion Furnace, remarkably causing the area to exude vibrant life and lose its arid heat, as if transforming into a blessed grotto-heaven. This was their heritage: the Yuan Clan possessed mysterious methods and peerless treasures, temporarily stabilizing the terrain and allowing their young members to enter the furnace. Therefore, they were not in a position to act at this moment.

On the other side, the Xuanhuang Human King Clan was largely in the same situation. Having entered the furnace, it was not convenient for them to emerge immediately. The force field patterns there shimmered, creating a dazzling area. However, at this moment, the Xuanhuang Human King Clan's Quasi-Heavenly Venerate spoke, his voice carrying: “Brother Mo of the Mo family, we are all humans; why go to such lengths?” He was interceding and making excuses for Chu Feng, not wanting him to be truly killed by the Mo family.

The Mo family's Quasi-Heavenly Venerate replied: “Brother Dao of the Xuanhuang Clan, you witnessed it yourself. It’s bad enough that he didn't bow to a king, but he also showed such disrespect to my clan. How can he be forgiven? Even three kowtows and nine prostrations would not suffice.” The Xuanhuang Clan's Quasi-Heavenly Venerate countered: “The Human King Clan is merely a title our ancestors were given, a mark of reverence. But those are the glories of our forefathers; we ourselves should not take them too literally. Not bowing is normal; why make such a fuss?”

Upon hearing this, the Mo family elder's expression turned frigid. He stated: “Human King is not merely a title, but a supreme path. While your Xuanhuang Clan may not care, we remember it well. Our clan's ultimate path of evolution in the future still relies on the Human King path. Who dares profane it, who dares offend it? He has committed a great transgression today and cannot be forgiven!”

Chu Feng was slightly surprised that the Xuanhuang Clan was siding with him and speaking up like this. Although the white-haired youth from that clan was unlikable and not very articulate, the clan itself had left a good impression on him. At this moment, Chu Feng spoke: “Esteemed senior of the Xuanhuang Clan, I appreciate your good intentions, but allow me to be presumptuous this once. What are these people? Just slaughter them!” He strode forward directly! The Xuanhuang Clan's Quasi-Heavenly Venerate opened his mouth, but all his words were swallowed back.

“Hahaha…” At this moment, the Mo family’s Quasi-Heavenly Venerate burst into laughter, yet his gaze was icy, filled with disdain and cruelty. He looked at the Xuanhuang Clan’s Quasi-Heavenly Venerate and said: “As fellow Human Kings, it's not that I won't give you face, but look at how arrogant he has become! As Human Kings, we must cleanse the human race's doors today!”

In fact, even before he could unleash his full power, the young men and women beside him, all of them Divine King-level experts from the Mo family, had already made their move. Each of them surged with vital energy, splendid as morning glow, radiant as rainbow light, utterly terrifying. They unleashed their Human King bloodline force fields, forming immense, unique “Dao Fields” that pressed forward.

“Be careful, his mastery of force fields is extremely high. My old friend, you’d best use your magnetic marrow treasure weapon to suppress him!” the Yuan Clan’s Quasi-Heavenly Venerate warned. The Mo family’s Quasi-Heavenly Venerate nodded. Fearing an unforeseen event, a magnetic mountain appeared in his hand, flowing with dark light. It rotated, releasing secret powers, and various force field symbols poured forth. Even Chu Feng could only sigh inwardly. As expected of an old and formidable family, their foundation was indeed profound. The magnetic marrow he longed for was directly brought out by them – a great mountain refined from magnetic marrow! A Magnetic Marrow Mountain – how terrifying, how incredibly rare! How many such mountains could be found in the entire Yang Realm? Yet today, he had successively seen both the Yuan Clan and the Mo family produce them.

Nevertheless, he remained fearless. Now that he had unlocked his “shackles” and was truly about to act, there was nothing to be apprehensive about, nothing to fear. A bracelet appeared on his wrist, glistening snow-white with streaks of blood-red patterns and starry specks! This was an evolved version of the Vajra, refined from a mother metal pool, essentially the rough embryo of an ultimate artifact — the Thirty-Three Heavens Vajra! It could guide the surging force field runes to flow to either side, as if parting a vast ocean!

At the same time, a group of young Divine Kings from the Mo family roared “Suppress and Kill!” and directly charged forward. They possessed absolute confidence. Once their Human King bloodlines were activated and combined, they formed an invincible “Human King Dao Field,” even more terrifying than a regular force field. When encountering Divine Kings of the same level, there was no suspense; they would be directly crushed and annihilated!

“One who sees a Human King and does not bow shall be executed!”“As Human Kings, we shall cleanse the human race’s doors!”

These young men and women shouted. United, the Human King Dao Field they formed was exceedingly powerful and dazzling, as if a pure land had descended, pressing down upon Chu Feng. They themselves were very self-assured, advancing with extraordinary postures, like celestial beings descending or great demons suppressing the world. Each was either valiant or captivating in demeanor. They forcefully suppressed him, maintaining their detached stance.

“Human Kings? All of you, crawl over here!” Chu Feng roared, unleashing his full power as he single-handedly countered the Human King Dao Field created by the combined efforts of over a dozen Divine Kings.

“What?!”“That’s…”

In an instant, everyone couldn't help but close their eyes, as their vision was excruciatingly painful. Some shed tears of blood, utterly shocked. Chu Feng’s vital energy erupted like a raging sea. His blood, a brilliant golden, suppressed the eight directions, as if an eternally existing Human Emperor had returned, sweeping aside all kings.

“Ah…” The two female Divine Kings who bore the brunt of the attack screamed as their bodies were torn apart by his fist imprints. They flew diagonally before exploding into pieces. Most critically, their Human King Dao Field disintegrated in an instant, ceasing to exist.

“You dare to call yourselves kings? Who gave you the audacity to represent humanity and cleanse its doors?!” Chu Feng roared! At that moment, his terrifying roar directly struck a male Divine King who couldn’t halt his momentum. The golden, tangible sound waves, transforming into symbols, slammed into the man’s face, shattering his various protective arts and tearing his body into pieces, causing him to explode on the spot.

Who was this person? A great devil, or a great Buddha?! A single roar could kill a Divine King?!

“Who are you?!” the Mo family members cried out. Seeing Chu Feng’s dazzling golden vital energy, many immediately felt their hearts sink. That was clearly a legendary bloodline, the terrifying Human King bloodline! Everyone was stunned.

“Stop, come back!” the Mo family’s Quasi-Heavenly Venerate shouted, but it was too late!

“Roar!” With another furious roar, the female Divine King in front of Chu Feng exploded, literally roared to death by him, turning into a bloody mist.

Insane! Everyone felt shocked, trembled, and found it hard to believe. Who was that? Was he also a Human King? His state was wild, like a great Buddha or a great devil!
